I bought my wagon w/ a MESS of a wiring system. It seems the person I bought it from did not know all he thought he knew about electrical systems (neither do I, but I ask for help!) I can't figure out why my passenger headlight is dimming. Can Anyone help this auto-electrical nimrod?!

Thanks

Chris

With the lights on, grab the socket on the back of the bulb and wiggle it. Alot of times the contacts get corroded and need to be cleaned. If it gets brighter, that's the problem.

Chris, had the same problem with my '70, passenger side low beam. I was pulled over at 2:30am because of it. The problem was exactly what Bob pointed out, the connector. The wire was pulled taut on that light and over time caused problems.

Hi Wagon

A bad ground @ the light will dim it also.

Gentlemen,

Thank you for your help!! The culprit was the bad ground wire. Thanks again!
